When Andrew Johnson was president, slavery almost came about again (in fact many historians consider Johnson the most racist president in history). Things really got bad when the Congress left for summer vacation. President Johnson started passing bogus plans that the Republicans of the Congress (who held majority at that time) didn"t approve of. The republicans decided to take advantage of Johnson by passing a law (sorry forget what it was called) that didn"t allow Johnson to fire anyone in his Cabinet without their authorization. He fired William Seward, the secretary of war, anyway, thus he got impeached.

Why was President Andrew Johnson's presidency riddled with problems?
Andrew Johnson had been vice President under Lincoln, and he became President only because of the assassination of Lincoln. Even though this was exactly what the constitution required, many people at the time felt that Johnson did not have the right to become President, and resented him. This was particularly true because Johnson was from the South. It almost seemed like a final coup d'etat by the Confederacy, for Johnson to become President.
